Book News: That Girl From Nowhere by Dorothy Koomson

Another of my favourite authors, Dorothy Koomson, is back this year with a new novel, hurrah! That Girl From Nowhere is Dorothy's first book for a few years, and I love the cover for this new book, very eye-catching and something I would want to pick up. The book is out on 9th April.

You can pre-order That Girl From Nowhere as a hardback or an eBook now.

Clemency Smithson was adopted as a baby and the only connection she has to her birth mother is a cardboard box hand-decorated with butterflies. Now an adult, Clem decides to make a drastic life change and move to Brighton, where she was born. Clem has no idea that while there she'll meet someone who knows all about her butterfly box and what happened to her birth parents.

As the tangled truths about her adoption and childhood start to unravel, a series of shocking events cause Clem to reassess whether the price of having contact with her birth family could be too high to pay."
